We know it’s an extremely exciting time purchasing and building your very first home, however, it doesn’t constantly end up that way for lots of first home purchasers.
Too many times we see people losing hundreds of thousands of dollars on a new home & land bundle because they thought they were getting themselves a great deal.
However remember, if it sounds too great to be true, it generally is!
See, some home builders ‘hide’ their additional fees and do not provide you fixed upfront ‘costs’. Meaning that ‘quote’ they simply gave you, will most absolutely NOT be the final amount you need to pay.
And that’s when you should be asking yourself, why?
If you’re being sold any home and land packages that are 10s of thousands of dollars cheaper than other similar houses you have actually looked at … there is probably a good reason why.
Most of the time it’s because you’re losing out on extras that ought to actually come as standard (and they’ll be making you pay for them later on), or you’re going to be paying additional for ‘site expenses’ so the contractor can catch up their original price shortfall.
We hear a great deal of horror stories from very first home purchasers that get a bit too fired up and unfortunately didn’t do sufficient due diligence prior to parting with their hard-earned cash.
Rahul was among them. He came to us after using his entire $25,000 deposit to secure a block of land that no builder wished to develop on (plus the worst part was, he thought he ‘d got himself a low-cost price, but he ‘d in fact paid more than what it was worth and really didn’t need to hand over a 10% deposit either).
Sara, unfortunately, approached us after she ‘d just signed contracts with a well known builder and paid her deposit, just to later on be hit with an additional $35,000 in ‘unforeseen’ expenses (for items she thought were included in the initial quote) and had no thought of how she ‘d cover the costs.
Luckily, with Rahul, one of our new home experts had the ability to help him find a builder that specialised in building on smaller narrow blocks of land and wasn’t going to charge him a fortune to do so.
But, with Sara, it was far too late. Starting once again with another builder and losing the deposit she had actually already paid wasn’t a choice. So she wound up needing to finance the additional $35,000 from her mum and dad and chalk it up to one of lifes lessons.
Rahul and Sara are simply a few of the numerous very first home purchasers that find themselves in a truly difficult scenario because they have actually made a decision (and parted with a great deal of cash) without having all the information and assistance from experts, that they required.
And we really do not want that to occur to you!
